4 Getting started
4.1 Operating Environment
When setting up the analyzer, select a location away from heat, smoke, electrical interference
and avoid any electrostatic discharges (ESD) to the analyzer unit. The bench top should be a
level surface and free of vibration.
Ensure that the vent holes of the analyzer are not obstructed. The analyzer requires an
environment with ambient room temperature in the range of 10°C to 45°C.
Before making any connections, make sure that the power cable at the back of the
analyzer is not plugged into an electrical outlet.
Only one set-up utility is required: an A.C. electrical outlet. It is recommended that the analyzer
is plugged into its own circuit to avoid power line interference and voltage surges or drops,
which may occur if the circuit is shared with devices with high electrical draw.
For protection against scratches and spills, it is recommended that the screen protection film
is placed on the touch screen monitor – one protection film is already placed on the touch
screen monitor! (to reorder, please contact your local agent or eralytics GmbH).
4.2 Dimensions & space requirement
Below dimensions are valid for a single position instrument, without considering space needed
for the user sample bottles. For dimensions of an instrument with autosampler, please contact
your local eralytics distributor or eralytics GmbH.
